The Indian government has recently approved an ambitious plan to deploy 10,000 electric buses across 169 cities, with the primary goal of transforming public transportation and reducing air pollution. This initiative is part of India's commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2070. Funding for the project will be sourced through a public-private partnership model, contributing $2.4 billion initially. The estimated cost of this project is approximately $7 billion over a span of 10 years.
